The figure is gorgeous. I love that shade of blue and how the whole thing flows. This whole line continues to retain the quality and beauty that attracted them to me in the first place. Just look at how the vinyl mimics real material and how the cape is incorporated in the base. Magnificent.

My review for Raven should be ready on Friday or Saturday of this week (I forget what day I scheduled it for). She's very nice but, out of the package, there is just way too much blue. The blue of her cape, boots, and skirt all kind of blend together. I really wish Kotobukiya had give the interior of her cape a black lining (like in the Yamashita artwork) as that would have helped to break things up.

BTW I also just preordered Lady Deadpool and Spider Gwen. I've said I was sticking with DC only on these, but I'm getting weak...

I am not into Lady Deadpool because...well...Deadpool. But I have to find that Spider Gwen. When is she due to be delivered? I must pre-order that one myself. That will be Number 20 for me. The Marvel girls are great. I LOVE my Scarlet Witch.

Calvin's Canadian Cave Of Cool Manifesto

I forever stand vigilant to protect this planet from the myriad of forces that are always against us. Be it the octopus, zombies, aliens or the robots my team of human agents, and our feline allies, circle the globe in a never ending struggle for human freedom.

I learn all I can on every subject that interests me. I especially enjoy ancient history because in the past there are valuable lessons to be found. Also, if I ever get my time machine to work properly, it would be good to know a bit about possible destinations and what to expect when I get there.

I greatly appreciate beautiful design. Be it manufactured or found naturally I am fascinated by the process of invention. I am attracted to the unique, the strange, the haunted. I like to share what I find on this blog.

And not let us forget the 'Cephalopod Menace' who, if allowed to, would wrap their tentacles around all that is good and pure in this life and crush it until it remained no more. They are creatures of pure spite. Hate is all they know. Death is all they do. They are our most ruthless and determined enemy.

So we fight. Selena has the celebrity contacts, the cat is ruthless and without pity, Roosevelt's ghost has the experience and I do the wetwork.

Fighting for the future of the planet doesn't have to be a chore, however. We can take the time to appreciate all that is cool in this world even as we cut the octopus into bite sized chunks.

This is the reason there has always been and must forever be, a Cave of Cool. Be sure to wipe your feet before you enter.
